A brief outline
is a useful start.
- Your name and the best way to reach you
- The general nature of the legal or business issue
- The names of parties involved, for conflict checks
- The relevant city or jurisdiction
- Any known hearing date or response deadline
Do not send confidential documents, identification records or detailed case material until the firm has confirmed an appropriate channel.
Before an engagement.
Does an initial enquiry create a lawyer–client relationship?+
No. An enquiry is an initial contact. Any engagement is subject to conflict checks and agreed terms.
How are fees and scope confirmed?+
These are discussed after the nature of the matter and proposed work are understood. Ask for the scope, fees, exclusions and applicable terms before work begins.
Can I send case documents immediately?+
Start with a brief, non-confidential outline. Wait for confirmation of the appropriate document-sharing channel.
What if a deadline is approaching?+
Mention the date and the document that establishes it when you call. Do not assume that an enquiry pauses a deadline or that the firm has accepted the matter.
